Agreed. Great BBQ doesn't need sauce. Good BBQ does. I use less and less of sauces these days. Too much sugar and fructose - doesn't work with keto/carnivore.Cratedigger wrote: ↑Tue Sep 05, 2023 10:07 pm
Nah their thing is they don’t need the sauce. Any sauce you use would ruin their rub

Re: Another KC's "best" BBQ Article
I would agree that some of it is super commercialized--especially the likes of Dickey's, Rudy's, and Bill Miller, of which our closest comparison might be Jack Stack or Gates Rudy's is almost doable if you can get them to cut and serve the brisket right. A lot of places in Texas cut off the burnt e...

Sandwich Tour of Kansas City
I grew up in KC and was a feral child with the freedom to take a bus that went right in front of our house in Prairie Village and all the way downtown via the Plaza and Westport. Being raised by a single father that wasn't much of a cook meant we ate out often and conveniently. I had the freedom to ...

Re: My 7 yr old son's first Chief's game - tickets?
Cold weather won't work for him and seeing people fight over a sporting event won't work for either of us.
I'll look at the Chief's website. We need at least 2 days in advance to plan and the scalper idea will only work if we're already in KC.

My 7 yr old son's first Chief's game - tickets?
Lifetime Chief's fan in Dallas. I've been looking at online prices and find them ridiculous. Example: Bears start at $285 while Broncos are half the cost, Buffalo also low. What determines prices? The weather? The likeliness of winning? Or is it just availability? Why wouldn't there be more people w...

The 1980s were not good to downtown KC -- nobody went down there except for Bob Jones shoes. Even Crown Center had a tough decade. LMAO - yep going down to Bob Jone's shoes and seeing him up on his high chair was a thing. I bought some bench made Ralph Lauren shoes their in the late 90s. Such a goo...

Re: Looking for an old friend - Wally Walsh
Interesting how these lines were fuzzy back then. Where I live now they don't allow any out of district admissions and have prosecuted some people for breaking the rules by registering children at a relatives house. The lines weren't fuzzy between districts usually -- Blue Valley always started at ...

KC Hotel rates are outrageous
What happened in KC with these hotel rates? It's been a few years since we came to KC and as an example the Embassy Suites for a random date in June is $648 a night all in. Even this absolute dump of a hotel, the Rodeway Inn at Admiral and Paseo is $100+. Is this the Superbowl affect? https://i.ibb....

Re: OFFICIAL - The Continental Apartments (former Mark Twain Tower)
I lived in Quality Hill apts in the early 80s. It was a food desert back then. Just a tiny mom and pop grocery store on Jefferson (long gone). In my view it won't be necessary to have a grocery nearby as it was back then. I'm in Dallas with a Tom Thumb, Kroger, and WalMart all within a mile but eith...

Re: Kansas City will likely suffer 'off the charts' heat in the next 30 years, new study predicts
This isn't just heat and higher AC bills, this is widespread loss of agriculture, access to water and death for many people (poor and elderly). Climate change and its effects are real. Look at lakes Mead and Powell, the Colorado river, the Rhine, the Po, etc. All suffering from heat and drought. 4 y...
